      I just started running. I really do enjoy it a lot. Still doing my c25k program though.

      But you run with scissors. What if we bump into each other? It could become a very gory crime scene.

      I'm a walker, not a runner but I did enjoy your attention grabber. :bigsmile: :drinker:

      Newbie here just started Base Training with a HM in August and Marathon in September, purposefully running slowly at the minute trying to build up my base before training starts proper in May.

      I'm a runner! Also a swimmer and a biker.

      One full and three half-marathons under my belt.

      I'm not the fastest, but I'm fast enough, and I love to run :)

      I'm not a runner but wanted to say Hi and wish you well. Maybe if you fill out your profile and let runners know a little bit about you, what you do now, what your goals are, you'd find running friends faster. Tip from my Mom: never run with scissors.

      Good Topic mate... I have friends who actually had a band that was called Running with Scissors... the band's name was always an attention grabber. And it was contrived due to advice from their Moms - Never run with scissors.

      I'm not running yet, just fast walking.. but I know I am getting stronger every week. When I shed another 20 lbs and my weight won't be so nasty on my knees, then that walk will turn into a jog and then a run.

      Always nice to meet positive individuals, well new people to add me as their friend here on MFP - which I find to be just a fabulous group of peeps... Have a great Fryday everyone..

      Cheerz!

      I like to run but with my phone, not scissors.

      Planning my first half in November. Looking to increase distance and speed at the moment.

      So the real question is, who runs with what? I prefer all metal scissors over the ones with plastic handles.

      I did have to run yesterday(6 miles) with my keys-4 plus keyfob-alarm device. It was difficult, to say the least without any pockets!. hehehe! They went into my Speedo "Splice" bottoms!
      Difficult, but I did it! :smile:

      Yeah, I usually tie my house and car keep to my shoes, but I'm always nervous they'll go flying off and I won't hear them. One time, I did a 10k with a Venti Starbucks in hand.

      I actually jog with a machete in my hand. ...it's a great tool, as I find it gets the people around me running as well. Exercise for everyone!
